Title: At Dawn
Post by: sweatboard on Aug 27, 2004, 04:21 PM
I just had the worst day ever and an even worse week.  I came home, poured a glass of makers and coke.  Half way through the glass and "The Way That He Sings" just ended.  All is now right in the world and I couldn't be happier.  I love you all!!!!  Back to what I started, Have A Great Weekend.

Just listened to Just Because I DO, and I gotta say I'm so bad the guys have been able to add harmony to their live shows.

By the way, HOT DAMN!  it;s cool to listen to the same songs and drink the same drinks.  We should organize this shit.  I think MMJ should be blaring simultaneously from every state and every country.  we coul;d change the world.

just remember (girls, don't read this!)...

all is forgiven in the name of the jacket.  don't use that as a license to be a shitheel, but somehow they let us go wild once and a while with MMJ involved somehow (playing at some city 8 hours away, playing in the background as you vomit bourbon everywhere, etc. etc.)

maybe that's just mrsjohnconaway...god bless her for putting up with the likes of me! :) :)

I like the image of synchronized drinking and MMJ appreciation--just reinforces that feeling of community here and its also somewhat comforting knowing you're not the only one waking up the next day with your tongue stuck to the roof of your mouth emitting noxious gases :)

Sounds like you all had a great time. Hope you're not suffering too much in the aftermath. That's got to be one of the fastest threads ever  :D

The Way That he Sings does the same for me after a shitty day  8)

I believe I have to flat out agree with you here--this song really grabbed onto my heart, as At Dawn was my first mmj CD, and it reamins high on my list ;)
